Two of the most durable reality shows continue.

Two reality TV mainstays will keep mainstaying, as CBS has renewed both Survivor and The Amazing Race. Survivor has gotten a two-season renewal, for Season 21, airing in the fall, and Season 22, airing next spring. The Amazing Race is getting a slightly more cautious one-season renewal (for The Amazing Race 17), presumably to air in the fall.

The next question facing Survivor is whether host Jeff Probst -- whose contract is up after the about –to-air Season 20 (Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains) -- will return or not. No doubt some intense negotiations are underway, as Probst has definitely become the face of the series over its decade long run.
